Chinese Women's Suffrage
-
Their suffrage campaign happened between 2 periods of time. The democratic systems between the decline of the Qing Imperial government and the rise of the revolutionary communist government.
The first Chinese women suffragists were located within the anti-Qing pro- republican movement of the first decade of the twentieth century. These women were not pleased with the weakness of the women's Chinese political system.
There was no suffrage in the Qing monarchy of 1900 let alone women's suffrage. Chinese people argued that to build a nations you need to build a family and to build a family you need to build women.
So to solve the anti- Qing movement a lot of revolutionary activities took place such as bomb making , arms- smuggling, intelligence gathering and dissemination. Anti- Qing propaganda's were produced as well to gain support for the Republican movement.
During this time Chinese women were also referred to as slaves of slaves. Chinese men were enslaved by foreign oppressors and Chinese women were enslaved by Chinese men

Against Women's Suffrage The Case of Maine and New Brunswick In the 1800's those opposed to women's suffrage in the borderlands of Maine and New Brunswick held a lot of the same arguments. They expressed their arguments in different ways and outcomes. In New Brunswick the male spoke the most on being anti suffrage. In Maine a group of elite women led the fight to keep women from voting.

In the article titled "Argument Against Women's Suffrage, 1911" The author J. B. Stanford expresses that women do not need any political rights. Stanford points out, " The mother's influence is needed in the home. She can do little goof by gadding the streets and neglecting her children". He feels that the role of women should only involve staying at home being an educator and caregiver. He insists that bringing politics into the household will destroy it, he argues that suffrage will be unsuccessful. Stanford states, "Women does not have to vote to secure her rights. Man will go to any extreme to protect and elevate her now". Stanford labels men as being the protector of women, so they do not need rights.
